Linkedin MCP Server tools 20

  • get_person_profileGet a specific person's LinkedIn profile.
  • search_peopleSearch for people on LinkedIn.
  • connect_with_personSend a LinkedIn connection request or accept an incoming one. The tool is annotated with destructiveHint so MCP clients will prompt for user confirmation before execution.
  • get_sidebar_profilesGet profile links from sidebar recommendation sections on a LinkedIn profile page. Extracts profiles from "More profiles for you", "Explore premium profiles", and "People you may know" sidebar sections. Follows "Show all" links to return the full list from each section. Sections that redirect to linkedin.com/premium are skipped.
  • get_my_profileGet the authenticated user's own LinkedIn profile. Navigates to /in/me/ and resolves the redirect to obtain the real username before reading the profile, so the url field in the result is the actual profile URL (e.g. linkedin.com/in/johndoe/) rather than /in/me/.
  • get_company_profileGet a specific company's LinkedIn profile.
  • get_company_postsGet recent posts from a company's LinkedIn feed.
  • search_companiesSearch for companies on LinkedIn.
  • get_company_employeesList employees at a company from the LinkedIn /people/ page, including the demographics aggregate that this view exposes: where employees live, where they studied, and a function breakdown (Engineering, Sales, Operations, etc.). The demographics are unique to this tool. For filtered search by network degree (1st/2nd/3rd) or location, prefer search_people with current_company set to the company URN id. That path also returns more result pages than the /people/ tab. The optional keywords filter narrows results by name, title, or skill. company_name must be the exact LinkedIn URL slug (the path segment after /company/), not the display name. LinkedIn assigns unique slugs and the display name often does not match. For example, the AI lab Anthropic lives at /company/anthropicresearch/, not /company/anthropic/. If you are unsure of the slug, call search_companies first and pick the slug from the returned references.
  • get_job_detailsGet job details for a specific job posting on LinkedIn.
  • get_job_apply_urlGet how a job posting takes applications, and the employer's application link. Reads the posting without clicking anything.
  • search_jobsSearch for jobs on LinkedIn. Returns job_ids that can be passed to get_job_details for full info.
